Stonesetting for Fine Jewelry (9080)

by Paul Leibold

The second, updated edition of this book by master goldsmith and stonesetter Paul Leibold looks at setting gemstones in items of jewellery and describes all the techniques used in stonesetting. Numerous graphics and images highlight the individual stages of work involved. The book is divided into three parts: the first one describes the different tools required to set the stones. The book then explains the vari- ous setting techniques applied and the last part explores the risk of stones becoming damaged during the setting process. The updated version of â€śStone- setting for Fine Jewelryâ€ť is even more detailed than the first and contains up- to-date image material. It provides the- oretical knowledge for all those involved in the design and creation of settings and jewel-setting techniques.
